The news release noted that since SyncUP DRIVE launched this past November, demand for the device has nearly doubled early forecasts. The most popular device feature is GPS location monitoring, followed by vehicle diagnostics and the in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot. Other favorites include vehicle maintenance monitoring and family and vehicle security.

“The response to T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE has been phenomenal! Customers are telling us what they love—and what they want to see next. And, as always, the Un-carrier’s listening,” said John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile. “Customers’ No.1 ask has been for roadside help. So we’ve partnered with Allstate Motor Club to roll out dedicated roadside assistance for SyncUP DRIVE customers at no extra charge!!”

T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE customers needing anything from a jump to a tire change or a tow will be able to quickly connect to a dedicated Allstate Motor Club customer service team via the updated T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE app – which is available for iOS on the Apple App Store and for Android devices on Google Play. To get Allstate Motor Club Roadside Assistance, customers who have already installed SyncUP DRIVE simply need to accept the update within the SyncUP DRIVE app and enroll with Allstate Motor Club.

Allstate Motor Club is one of the country’s most experienced providers of emergency roadside assistance.

And while the carriers try to charge customers MORE for advanced features like Wi-Fi hotspot, T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE customers get access to all of these great Un-carrier benefits at one low price, without being forced to sign a two-year service contract or paying activation fees. Right now customers can get T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE – normally a $149.99 value – for just $48 with 24-month no-cost finance agreement with a 2GB or higher mobile Internet plan.

In addition to roadside assistance, T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE includes:
